Hydro Film Shown Here
Moving pictures of the operation
of the Hydro Electric Power Commis-
sion of Ontario entitled, "The Bright
Path", were shown in the Collegiate
Institute auditorium. Monday after-
noon to the Collegiate students and
the pupils of the Public School. In
the evening the film was shown to' a
large crowd in -the council dumpers.
This new Hydro film provided an in-
teresting. entertainment and an ed-
ucational. story on Hydro, •
The growth of Hydro since its in -
exception has been tremendous, and in
the -film, the idea of the magnitude
of this great enterprise was obtained
through the graphic construction of
scenes depiction the building of mon-
ster dams and power houses, and the
interesting• shots of allthe principal
power sites of the system. Many
scenes were shown indicating the in-
numerable applications for electricity
as applied to industry and the home.
Especially interesting was- the repair
work of the linemen under the worst
of weather conditions.
Mr. Hardy of Toronto, was in char-
ge of the sound effects%

For comparison purposes it may be
interesting to hockey fans to have
the chart giving the Lions Juvenile
Hockey team's record for the past

be proud of, and: believe us, they
are. With but a few changes most of
the boys have been playing togethei
for the past five "years, two years
as Midget and three es Juveniles.
Some of the boys will be in the

hope the next team of Juveniles will
keep up the good work.

Wins Two 'Awards While
On Trip- i
The following account taken from
the March issue of the Sports Goods
Journal of Canada concerning one of
our 'sportsmen, -
I notice that Ellwood Epps, prop-
rietor of Clinton Bicycle & Motor-
cycle Sales, Clinton, Ontario, has been
visiting a number of gun and rifle
plants in the U.S.A. The trip, com-
ing asit did, early .this month, made
it possible for
Ellwood to take
in our
Canadian Toy Fair—an event' to
which he had looked 'forward's -but it
did provide him with contacts he was
so anxious
to ' esiablis• . o
h n w that 'his
firm is specializing on guns and, am-
munition. Among the plants visited
were Winchester, Lyman, Smith &
Weston, Hunter, Colt, L. O. Smith,
Ithaca, etc. "On th pleasure end of
my trip,". Ellwood writes, "I believe
I bumped' into almost everyone in the
Who's Who of the rifle or shooting
game in the U.S.A. I was in New
Haven at the time of the Connecticut
State Small Bore Shoot, the largest
indoor shoot in the world, with 1,200
entrants I -tried my luck, and although
I had never shot kneeling in my life
before, was, able to make a score of
186 out of 200, Although there were
a Iot ahead of me, I felt somewhat
elated that I was only 2 points be-
hind Dave Carlson, the No, 1 Mark-
sman who took biggest honors at
Camp. Perry."
Mr. Epps was awarded a bronze
medal and a bronze shield which he
received about a week ago from Con-
necticut.
